D-Double-Double Caravan!?
« on: October 31, 2011, 06:52:58 pm »
I was playing my modded Genesis Mod( Orc Playable and Friendly Goblins), when I was visited  by two caravans from the same civ, less then a season after the first one left...all my orcs had to trade were some barrels....
Have any of you received a double caravan? Or is this some modding glich?

Goblins are set to arrive every season in Vanilla, so you'll get a caravan every season if they're friendly.  If they're hostile you'll get a siege/ambush every season.  This is an intended feature.

I received two caravans in the same season.

Back in the 40D days there used to be multiple Caravans that arrive depending on your fortress' wealth. I believe that the current Dwarf Fortress works the same way and the bug that prevents caravans has just been masking it, making players believe it's a bug.

Just to be sure...  You can have one caravan leaving and another arriving at the same time.  Did this happen?

How do you know it wasn't just one really big caravan?  Was there a second announcement?
